Let’s talk about something not many people are chatting about and what’s actually happening right now. You might wonder why Imran Ahmed and the Center for Countering Digital Hate (CCDH) suddenly became targets of the U.S. government. The honest answer is that their research hit where it hurt.

Between @ifbookspod.bsky.social dunking on Elon in a deeply cathartic 2-parter and @youaregood.bsky.social’s exceptional deep dive on Home Alone 2, I have been emotionally and spiritually fortified in this, the chaotic holiday season 😂 10/10 content, team. You’re keeping this random American afloat.

podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/y... Please enjoy some lovely escapism as this silly movie (and Sandler in general) receives a richer analysis than anyone ever asked for. 😂 Another 10/10 from @youaregood.bsky.social

Although federal officials have emphasized that people who want a Covid-19 vaccine can get one after consulting with a doctor, narrower approval may limit access to shots for some people who were routinely able to get them in the past: https://cnn.it/45ZmZCq

Trump Attempts To Flush 14-Year-Old Masseuse Down Toilet

The only minority destroying America is the billionaires.

I want to see more work published by historians; I want to place trust in the expertise of those who can study, interpret, and take the long view of humanity’s story. The chaos of fascism is diverting and emotionally paralyzing; let us study what those before us learned when they faced the struggle.

Do not let despair have the final say.

Trump sure seems emotional right now. Don’t you think he looks tired?

how can someone be so hot and so right

i am simply asking the press to cover the government sending masked thugs to rip people from their crying children and shipping them to a foreign concentration camp with the same ferocity they cover a trans kid playing jv tennis in sheboygan

hell yeah

This is better than the water balloons filled with paint idea.

I’m nearing forty and all I want is for the internet to present me with its top curated cute baby goat content.

Trump could wander into the press briefing room in nothing but soiled underwear, mistake Karoline Leavitt for his ex-wife Marla Maples, and go on an extended rant about how he was sending SEAL Team 6 to execute George Clooney and half the media would still be asking about Biden's health.

I hate the news, but this is some damn fine reporting.

I often think about how the media of the 80’s and 90’s vilified all lawyers as parasitic creatures; the butt of jokes everywhere, and then I wonder about who both writes the stories and fears the law.

I watched this because it’s critical to bear witness. It’s our responsibility as Americans to look at what they’re doing, to see, and to know. I have been ashamed of my country many times before, but this… this breaks my goddamn heart. Fuck ICE. Fuck Fascism.

Important for all of us but especially journalists.

The next steps are clear. We must ask ourselves — what is even one more tangible thing we can be doing? This will take work, grit, and determination—but this is how change happens. Don't let your inability to do everything undermine your determination to do something in the cause of our country.

WOW: Thousands are currently protesting in Boston. This is just one of more than 1200 'Hands Off' protests underway today across the nation as people rise up against the Trump-Musk regime. (via Rob Way)

Sick stuff

Last week, 6,709 people signed their strike card. Since 1/20/25, hundreds of thousands have. But we need MORE. Share at protests, put up flyers, talk with your community. Can you get (3) people to sign their strike card this week? That’s one step closer to a strike. It’s time to go all in.

Having @alexsteed.bsky.social and the stellar team of @youaregood.bsky.social cover Back to the Future is pure soul medicine. I hope they consider playing my favorite party game: Count the Biffs! Without looking it up, how many discrete characters does Thomas F Wilson play across all 3 films?

"Hey Alexa, are you recording this?" Yes, the answer is yes. Amazon is killing its “Do Not Send Voice Recordings” privacy feature on March 28 as the company aims to bolster Alexa+, its new subscription assistant.

The Department of Education, among other things, is what funds special education for children with disabilities. Trump’s executive order will hurt kids and parents in virtually every school district in the country.

we have an utter fucking nimrod attempting to set himself up as dictator because for 50 years anyone who could have stopped him has dithered and procrastinated, hoping someone else would do it
